After Bang Yifeng finished talking to Long Xiang, he began to look at the street carefully. He saw that the street was already crowded with people, and there were no less than 500 stalls on both sides, with various antique porcelains placed on them.
The onlookers each found their own opinions from time to time.
"There is nothing to see here. It is mainly open to tourists. Most of the products sold are imitations. The real good products are at the back!" Teacher Qi walked inside and said to the two people beside him: "Of course.
, this is not necessarily the case, if you are lucky, you may be able to find some genuine products here!”
Qin Yifeng agreed very much with this. Antiques are like gold buried in the sand. You have to look for it yourself. As long as you have a discerning eye, you might actually be able to find some treasures. No one dares to tell you what is in the things you buy.
There is no such thing as a treasure, it just depends on whether you have the discernment to identify it.
After walking forward for another five or six minutes, the three of them went to the innermost row of stalls. It was obviously much deserted here than outside, with only a few lingering at a certain stall to look at the goods they were interested in.
"You see, those people are just doing their own research and never take the initiative to speak. If they like it, they will pick it up and look at it. If they don't like it, they will put it down. And the people standing next to them will not speak when others are looking at the goods.
This is the standard in the antique world!" Teacher Qi explained as he walked, and at the same time he agreed with this rule. In the antique world, even if you clearly see others looking at which item is genuine, you are not allowed to intervene and raise the price.
, you must wait for that person to give up before you can trade with the seller.
Teacher Qi did not stay at the stalls outside, but walked directly to a stall. Qin Yifeng guessed that Teacher Qi must have received the news and came to this stall specifically to take a look.
The owner of the stall was a middle-aged man. As soon as he saw Teacher Qi leading the two of them into his stall, he greeted him very enthusiastically: "Mr. Qi, you came just in time. I just bought some goods from other provinces yesterday. You can take a look first."
look!"
Teacher Qi has been here for a long time, and the stall owners have become familiar with him, so they will take out any new products automatically to prevent Teacher Qi from looking for them here.
"I received the news today about your new goods!" Teacher Qi chuckled, and introduced Qin Yifeng to the stall owner: "This is one of my students, named Qin Yifeng, and that one is his friend
, I came here today to open my eyes!" Teacher Qi did not say Long Xiang's name. If Long Xiang's name was mentioned, it would be a bit suspected of relying on the underworld to seize antiques.
"Hello, my name is Li Wei. I have been in this industry for a while. I have been able to achieve what I am today only because of Mr. Qi's care!" Li Wei is a good person and took a photo of Teacher Qi without leaving any trace.
Remember the flattery, "So, if you two brothers like something, just tell me and I will give you a cheap price."
"Don't listen to him. This guy has a nickname called Three Warehouses, which means his goods are divided into three levels. He will go to the first level when he meets people he is familiar with, and he will go to the second level if he meets people he has friendship with. This
Most of the goods on both levels are good. If a stranger comes to the door, he will bring out ordinary things, which are the street stall goods you just saw!" Teacher Qi said.
"Haha, Mr. Qi, it's good that you know it. Don't say it out loud. If others hear it, I won't be able to do business!" Li Wei is indeed a business owner. His words are polite and humorous.
"Of course, the two brothers came with Mr. Qi. Naturally, I will not greet you with third-level goods!"
"I have no money!" Qin Yifeng had no interest in other antiques except the bronze wine glass, but he couldn't say bad things to Teacher Qi's friends, so he just did it perfunctorily.
"Brother Qin, you are joking. What is money or not? Once you are familiar with something, it does not matter whether you buy it or not. What is important is the friendship. You can choose whatever you want from this stall. As long as you like that thing, give it to you.
Just pay a price. Although these things are not genuine, they are still works of art. You can also decorate your appearance when you buy them home!" Li Wei is indeed a well-rounded person, and he deceived Qin Yifeng with just one sentence.
"Brother Qin, are you really choosing?" Long Xiang was a little surprised to see Qin Yifeng being fooled into looking at the inferior goods on the stall.
"Xiao Qin, just pick a few pieces. Anyway, Boss Li said they are not worth much!" Teacher Qi looked at Qin Yifeng and said, "Okay, show me the batch of goods you bought. Explain first.
, I wouldn’t use it if it wasn’t genuine!”
"I dare to use imitations for others, but for you, Mr. Qi, I don't dare to fool you even if you give me a water tank to show your courage!" Li Wei took out a wooden box, opened it, and saw that it was a vase.
.
"It's actually blue and white porcelain. It's rare for it to be so well preserved!" Teacher Qi could tell at a glance that the blue and white porcelain vase was genuine. Whether it was the color or the faint mud fragrance emitted by the porcelain itself, it proved that the vase was indeed genuine.
It was just unearthed.
"Old Qi, what's your name?" Li Wei looked at Teacher Qi a little nervously, because he bought this vase from someone else. Although he was confident in his own vision, Teacher Qi's vision was more vicious. If Qi
If the teacher says it is false, then it must be false.
Teacher Qi took out a pair of magnifying glasses, looked at it intently for a while and said, "Just give me a price. I'm sure this blue and white porcelain is real, but as for the age and where it was produced, I have to go back and study it carefully."
Qin Yifeng felt bored when he looked at it, so he lowered his head and picked it by himself. Although it was not a genuine product, it was better to buy one and display it back than to watch two people bargaining here.
Just when Qin Yifeng was making the selection, he heard the quiet exchanges between Teacher Qi and Li Wei. It didn't take long for the two to complete the deal.
"The money is clear!" Teacher Qi gave the money to Li Wei, and Li Wei rewrapped the vase and handed it to Teacher Qi, and they both said this.
In antique trading, there is no possibility of regret once the transaction is completed, so antique trading is very important.
"What's wrong, brother Qin, do you have your eye on that one?"
Qin Yifeng looked at the goods in front of him and saw that they were all porcelain, calligraphy stickers, ancient coins, etc. There was nothing particularly outstanding, and he didn't know what to buy.
When Li Wei saw that Qin Yifeng was silent, he couldn't ask further questions because he thought Qin Yifeng was studying some antique and he would have broken the rules by interrupting.
"Forget it, just buy one!" Qin Yifeng had no choice, so he randomly picked an old calligraphy sticker and asked, "How much does this cost?"
"This?" Li Wei glanced at the calligraphy sticker in Qin Yifeng's hand. After seeing clearly that it was not a valuable item, he didn't take it seriously. The main reason was that the blue and white porcelain vase just now made him more than 30,000 yuan in the eyes of Teacher Qi, so he didn't pay attention to it.
Don’t take this small amount of money seriously. “Let’s give this a hundred yuan!”
"One hundred yuan? Too expensive!" Qin Yifeng put down the sticker and wanted to leave.
"Then how much do you want to say?" Although Li Wei could see that Qin Yifeng didn't really want this to be posted, he couldn't bear to betray Teacher Qi.
"I only have fifty yuan!" Qin Yifeng emptied his pockets and realized that he didn't go back to the dormitory to withdraw money last night, and he only had fifty yuan left with him.
"That's it, then let's get fifty!" Li Wei knew that even if he sold it for fifty, he would still be considered a profit, so he didn't say anything.
"Fifty is still too expensive. After buying it, I don't have any money for food and transportation!" Qin Yifeng continued.
"Then, the fixed price is thirty yuan!" Li Wei made the best concession, and when the copybook was sold for thirty yuan, he could still make a few bucks.
"Thirty, just thirty!" Qin Yifeng took the sticker and gave it the money, "What did you say just now? By the way, the money and goods will be paid."
"It's just money and goods!" Li Wei laughed and counted the money in his hands. He made too much from Teacher Qi today.
"Xiao Qin, let's sit down at the teahouse opposite first and show me your calligraphy stickers!" Teacher Qi said solemnly as soon as he walked out of Li Wei's shop.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yifeng asked in confusion. It was just a piece of broken writing, so why should he be so nervous?
"This time, you may have found a treasure!" Teacher Qi said solemnly.
"Find a treasure? No way, this copybook is so tattered!"
"If I'm not mistaken, this sticker of yours should be worth thirty million!" Teacher Qi said solemnly, "And it's US dollars!"
